Methadone Clients Only - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Modale, IA.

Methadone is a regulated drug which like morphine or heroin is a full opioid agonist, which means that the same nerve cell receptors are triggered when someone takes methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is regulated and used in facilities to help opiate dependent people so that they don't feel the need to get involved in drug seeking behavior, won't crave illicit opiates, and won't undergo the symptoms of withdrawal. So instead of quitting cold turkey, clinics that treat methadone clients only are licensed to prescribe methadone to these clients daily. This method of treatment is called methadone maintenance therapy.

Clinics which treat methadone clients only are not commonly designed to offer a broad array of comprehensive treatment services other than daily dosing, although some clinics may provide individual and group counseling. Methadone use is associated with side effects, potentials for overdose and serious drug interactions due to the fact that it is a full opioid agonist similar to heroin. Consequently, it is also a drug which is abused and misused by opioid dependent individuals. Seeking supplemental recovery services in Modale is suggested, including therapy, counseling and psychotherapies that are successful at long term recovery and preventing relapses.
